)Well, actually
a LOT.
As I said earlier, I really hate knowing what happens in a film before I see it the first time and especially if it's a film with a twist or a secret.
BUT once I have seen a twisty film, or one with a secret,I like to re-watch to see what hints I may have missed. Sometimes watching the "making of" additions on a dvd or even going to the olde IMDb (1) board for a specific film (where things went spoiler-less) and reading details that may have been missed and then re-watching enhanced it all.
Am a major fan, and user, of spoilers.
Funny thing is, Deathtrap's title seemed familiar to me but I knew I had never seen it. It's on my shelf of new library sale unsorteds and unwatcheds.
Now it's sort of like knowing the parentage and siblings of Luke Skywalker before seeing the series. Part of the fun is in finding out during the telling of the story.
These spoiler things are tricky here as they don't seem to show up until they are posted. There was supposed to be only one but three appeared.

I'm asking because Teleadm unfortunately revealed the central twist in his post before he took it down. If that's the only spoiler about which you've read, though, you know the central twist, but there are still little bits that you don't know. On the other hand, if you know everything from the second act as well, you may still well like the movie, but your fun will unfortunately be diminished. I'm particularly fond of showing it to people who've never heard of it, just so that they can be gobsmacked by the twist. Just my two cents, of course.
